CNBC Originals: Investigations Inc

Healthcare Hustle

Scott Cohn and the Investigations Inc team spend six months shadowing a joint strike force, who are attempting to take down alleged health fraudsters and criminal rings accused of cheating the US medical sector out of millions. The strike force - one of nine across the country - is at the heart of a two-year federal crackdown on fraud.
